biggest thing i noticed was just how long the coughing lasted. like 4 days of dry cough no other symptoms, then extreme lethargy with a sore throat for 2-3 days, where i just laid in bed rotting all day but couldnt sleep well because sore throat was keeping me up. Then like a full week or more of dry cough again, then the week after that some groce phlem coming up. The peak was only 3 days max but the dry cough was a few weeks. Didnt have breathing problems or any loss of smell/taste. Didnt really have a fever but felt like I was just on the brink of one starting during the peak, like the chills and sweats barely started but never really got there. Measured my temp and it was normal.

Still positive.

Best thing is to get an oxygen meter finger thing and let it put your mind at ease.
There were a couple times where I just had to lay down, stare at the ceiling, and focus on breathing. It sticks around for a while after too. It's been 3 weeks since I had it and I still get winded easily.

Sooner or later you'll probably get it, might as well get it over with asap.
99.999% chance you'll be fine, you have more chance of killing yourself bench pressing than you do from china flu.

My symptoms were mainly sore throat, cough, and extreme ldar lethargy but it only lasted 3-4 days. The shortness of breath wasn't as bad but cardio was significantly hindered.
Hope you can recover quickly.
Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; and if it is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.

I couldn't walk 10' without getting SOB and the 22 lb. weight loss really sucked. O2 sats got as low as 85% with any activity.

Keep positive OP. Just don't watch media/news as they are doing nothing but inducing fear, which can't be good for mental health when your self isolating.

Your country (Vic in particular) has to have had the most outrageous overreaction in the world. It's pure Draconian what is happening there, worse than China, yet I see so many Aussies (in QLD and WA especially) are for all the restrictions and border closures. How do you feel about being stuck in WA indefinitely?
I was hoping to get back to Aus soon but I really don't see when I'll be allowed back fukin sucks I had such an awesome time there last year (inb4 fuk off we're full).

If anything there should have been a reverse lockdown with nursing homes completely sealed off. That would have cut the death toll down by 90% and the overall death rate would plummet to below 0.2%. Letting everyone go about their lives.Glad to see an Aussie with some sense.

It's a pretty strange deadly pandemic where you have to be told to take a test weather or not you have it or not. If thousands of people have gotten it, and gone about their daily business and even worked while infected, then it's some strange deadly virus.
However at least there is a silver lining to all this, it's a setback for globohomo and mass immigration. We need to focus on our own citizens and not have a real estate and job market geared towards foreign investment and foreign manufacturing.
What the **** has been the point of moving all the factories and selling our farms off to foreign countries to get cheap goods, when the entirety of the gains of the last 50 years can be wiped off the market in as little as 5 months. (This shutdown will end up costing in excess of 800 billion dollars+ (forecast) and will set Australia back for the next 30+ years) It's a ****ing disaster, thousands of people will die ofSUICIDE (70% young males)than die of the actual virus!
